Lovely evening spent at the Illuminate Rotherhithe & Bermondsey lantern parade and ceilidh this evening. There was something magical seeing a sea of lanterns. Well done to everyone who made it happen and especially to Annabel and Larry for all of their organising to make such a special event.

Today at St Mary the Virgin Rotherhithe there was a requiem mass for the soul of Christopher Jones, master of the Mayflower.
